We strongly recommend any student, before accessing Brock CSC, COSC Help Desk, or COSC Mentor Service, to observe the following elements:
- To be familiar and comply with the Standard Libraries – link to the Java IO libraries.
- To debug and collect appropriate data before bringing the issue up – link to Java debugging basics.
- To be aware of the time constraints for course assignments and projects – link to more information about missed work.
